I think that mental health experts like to diagnose people as either affIicted or not afflicted. But, it is really a spectrum, based on personality. Some people do not feel comfortable unless they have a stockpile of certain supplies, food, or money in the bank. Other people are fine living day to day. However, it does seem that a very small number of people go to the extreme and need professional help. Did the mental health experts tell you how many rolls of toilet paper you need to have before seeking professional help?
